The First Lay of Eddais, YouTube Let's Make a Game series by ZænSoft

So, I'm three episodes into my game, and I'd really like it if you guys joined me. Looking for input and general interest.



I feel like these Let's Make series on YouTube offer a much more accurate presentation of what it's like to build a game, how to organize one, how to identify what you want to do, and how to solve it -- more so than a tutorial in under 10 minutes ever could.



I'd also be willing to do a Let's Play of your demo or game on my channel if you would like, although I am quite new and don't have a lot of subscribers; what that does mean is that I will definitely make time to do it! That said, please like, share, subscribe, and all that good stuff.

- Episode 1

- Episode 2

I think this is a great idea for a youtube series.

I made a short 5-10 minute RM game once, and I used a video series identical to yours to help me.
I could skim through the guy's videos until he got to a part where he was doing something that I wanted to do, and learn how to do it properly.
Because you're watching a person make an actual game, you can learn most of the basics just by watching.

It also gives you a chance to build up an audience before the game is released.

Good luck with it!

Yeah, I learned a lot of stuff from watching people do this. Sometimes it's turned into, "Hey, just check out my progress," and other times I actually do work on camera. I need to actually make time for that again. Lately I've just been working and then being like, "Okay, check it out, this is how it works," and I just skim over it because there's so much to show.

That's intro for the game as of now. It's a little bit more polished since I made that but, yeah.
